  • Publication number: 20240122374
    Abstract: A goods propulsion device and a shelf with the propulsion device include a partition plate, a push plate slidably connected with the partition plate, a gear rack configured on the partition plate, a gear rotatably connected to the push plate and a reset member connected to the push plate and the partition plate. The gear is meshed with the gear rack. The gear rack is configured along the length direction of the partition plate. The reset member is used for driving the push plate to reset relative to the partition plate. The present invention has a simple and compact structure. Users can assemble the goods propulsion devices with different types or sizes of bottom plates according to their actual needs.

  • Patent number: 7839846
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to the identification of messages relating to a particular communications session from a stream of messages, and more particularly to tracking voice and/or data call messages in packet data networks such as a UMTS mobile phone network. Various embodiments include a method of identifying messages associated with a communications session in a stream of messages captured from an interface within a network, the network including a fixed station in wireless communications with a plurality of mobile stations, said communications session being associated with one of said mobile stations and said stream of messages including messages for a plurality of communications sessions.

  • Patent number: 7792032
    Abstract: A method of testing a digital mobile phone network such as a GPRS or 3G network comprises either using real traffic or creating test traffic using test mobile phone coupled to a computer, and using the computer to measure a parameter associated with the network's response to the traffic. The measurements made by the computer are themselves sent as traffic to create one or more data streams within the mobile phone network comprising the traffic, measurements relating to the traffic, and signalling relating to the traffic, whereby this data stream or these streams can be captured at interface points within the network and analysed to investigate the functioning of the network dynamically as the network is exercised with the traffic. Software and test equipment for performing the method are also described.

  • Patent number: 7349692
    Abstract: A method of testing a digital mobile phone network such as a GPRS or 3 G network comprises creating test traffic using an unmodified test mobile phone coupled to a computer, and using the computer to measure a parameter associated with the network's response to the test traffic. The measurements made by the computer are encoded into the test traffic to create a data stream within the mobile phone network comprising test traffic, measurements relating to the test traffic, and signalling relating to the test traffic, whereby this data stream can be captured at points within the network and analysed to investigate the functioning of the network dynamically as the network is exercised with the test traffic. Software and test equipment for performing the method are also described.
